選擇一座城，“合拍”很重要。

這座城，要“熱血”，為拼搏奮斗提供揮灑汗水的土壤。

這座城，要“松弛”，讓工作之余的生活有風(fēng)格有品位。

動(dòng)與靜、忙與閑，“恰到好處”的結(jié)合才是最舒服的“節(jié)奏”。

濟(jì)南正有這樣的節(jié)奏——

在城市不斷追趕與超越的奮進(jìn)步伐中，保存有那份悠然自得、充盈自如的慢生活；而在這慢生活的寧靜外表下，躍動(dòng)著一顆永不止步、勇往直前的進(jìn)取之心。

濟(jì)南是一個(gè)節(jié)奏“剛剛好”的城市。

一

先看濟(jì)南的城市發(fā)展之“快”。

城市面貌的變化給人的感覺最為直觀。

近兩年，洛杉“濟(jì)”三件套火爆出圈：漢峪金谷，高樓林立，云鼎大廈、互聯(lián)網(wǎng)大廈和產(chǎn)業(yè)金融大廈眾“星”拱月，層層高樓直通云霄。頂天立地顯露泉城氣勢，聳入云鼎俯瞰齊魯壯美。這里成了濟(jì)南新地標(biāo)，被網(wǎng)友戲稱“陸家嘴濟(jì)南分嘴”。看似調(diào)侃的背后，更是肯定濟(jì)南發(fā)展的“速度與激情”。

CBD中央商務(wù)區(qū)，拔地而起的高樓，鱗次櫛比。從曾經(jīng)的廠區(qū)、宿舍區(qū)到如今的高樓林立，CBD正以令人驚嘆的速度“節(jié)節(jié)向上”，不斷刷新天際線。身處其中，會(huì)感受到脈脈悠長的文化氣息與未來商業(yè)文明的融合共鳴，會(huì)感受到古老的泉城濟(jì)南如何在自己的中央商務(wù)區(qū)中找到前行的動(dòng)力與自信。

黃河之畔，濟(jì)南新舊動(dòng)能轉(zhuǎn)換起步區(qū)正崛起成勢。獲批3年多的時(shí)間里，乘著重大國家戰(zhàn)略機(jī)遇的東風(fēng)，濟(jì)南起步區(qū)著力加快新舊動(dòng)能轉(zhuǎn)換，一個(gè)個(gè)項(xiàng)目落地建設(shè)，讓這座“未來之城”經(jīng)歷著從無到有的巨變，不斷把愿景圖轉(zhuǎn)化為實(shí)景圖，一顆“璀璨明珠”正在黃河之畔升起。

創(chuàng)新是第一動(dòng)力。

濟(jì)南的高質(zhì)量發(fā)展離不開創(chuàng)新“活水”澆灌。2023年，全市高新技術(shù)企業(yè)數(shù)量接近7000家，備案國家科技型中小企業(yè)超過了8000家，在英國《自然》雜志公布的全球科研城市榜單中，濟(jì)南位居第32位，較上一年度上升4個(gè)位次。

不僅如此，濟(jì)南綜合科技創(chuàng)新水平指數(shù)連續(xù)5年全省第一；技術(shù)合同成交額、基礎(chǔ)研究支出、全國重點(diǎn)實(shí)驗(yàn)室、省實(shí)驗(yàn)室、省級(jí)重點(diǎn)實(shí)驗(yàn)室、省級(jí)技術(shù)創(chuàng)新中心等12項(xiàng)重要指標(biāo)，位居全省第一。

人才是第一資源。

八方來“才”正是如今濟(jì)南的真實(shí)寫照。2010年以來，全市常住人口增加了130萬人，來濟(jì)落戶或就業(yè)的本科及以上學(xué)歷青年人才超過63萬人，全市人才總量突破281萬人。

策馬揚(yáng)鞭、蹄疾步穩(wěn)，如今的濟(jì)南可謂“行動(dòng)派”，用實(shí)干夯實(shí)向前的腳步，不斷跑出新的“加速度”。這座城市也化身奮進(jìn)者的樂園，科研人員能找到高能級(jí)平臺(tái)、技能好手有施展才華的廣闊市場、創(chuàng)業(yè)青年可以獲得一片沃土。

這樣的濟(jì)南，節(jié)奏快、空間大、機(jī)遇多，正是奮斗的好地方。

二

奔騰不息的城市發(fā)展里，濟(jì)南有著讓人舒適的“慢生活”。

漫步古城歷史街區(qū)，古街老巷盤根錯(cuò)節(jié)，泉池溪流星羅棋布。從曲水亭街隨意拐進(jìn)一個(gè)胡同，你會(huì)看到門口竹凳上坐著手搖蒲扇的老奶奶，你會(huì)聽到自行車駛過青石板路的聲音，你會(huì)聞到街邊火燒店里的煙火味道。阡陌小巷深處，沒有鬧市的車水馬龍，入眼是石道、舊宅、老柳、清泉。在時(shí)空交錯(cuò)的恍惚中，你會(huì)不自覺地放緩腳步，細(xì)品人間清歡幾許。

濟(jì)南的“慢生活”不只是在老城區(qū)，欣欣向榮、蓬勃發(fā)展的東部新城里，同樣有讓人幸福的工作生活節(jié)奏。

前幾天，小紅書上一名畢業(yè)后留濟(jì)工作的網(wǎng)友發(fā)的vlog引發(fā)不少人共鳴。她說自己畢業(yè)后入職濟(jì)南一家藥企，目前住在單位宿舍，外出使用人才卡乘坐公交地鐵，上班就在單位食堂吃飯，周末等節(jié)假日就打扮美美地出去下館子、看電影、逛街，假期去周邊城市旅游。目前，包括政府的人才補(bǔ)貼在內(nèi)，她每月收入9000元左右，工作半年就有了幾萬元的存款，未來想在濟(jì)南市碩士購房10萬元補(bǔ)貼資金支持下在濟(jì)南購房定居。她表示，在濟(jì)南，自己在花錢與攢錢之間找到了一種平衡，這種“人生有目標(biāo)，生活有希望”的節(jié)奏讓她感受到生活的意義。

這也反映出，人們選擇一座城市的核心出發(fā)點(diǎn)已經(jīng)從過往單一的“有錢賺”發(fā)展為“離家近、有錢賺、有生活”。數(shù)據(jù)也表明，濟(jì)南正以其“剛剛好”的節(jié)奏，吸引越來越多的人選擇這座城市。

今年3月，南方周末城市（區(qū)域）研究中心推出57城市民引力榜，觀察城市“引力”及其“留人”的親和度，其中濟(jì)南名列榜首，北京、上海、廣州、深圳分別位列第56、第55、第28和第20名。

濃厚的底蘊(yùn)是濟(jì)南城市“慢生活”的基礎(chǔ)。

“請閉上眼睛想：一個(gè)老城，有山有水，全在天底下曬著陽光，暖和安適地睡著，只等春風(fēng)來把它們喚醒，這是不是個(gè)理想的境界？”

老舍先生在《濟(jì)南的冬天》寫下了他對泉城的冬日印象，靜謐晴朗的“慢生活”盡在字里行間。

時(shí)光流轉(zhuǎn)，在如今的濟(jì)南，老舍先生所見的“響晴”“有山有水”依然如是。

山之南、水之北，正是泉城濟(jì)南。

新晉“網(wǎng)紅”菠蘿山，就在濟(jì)南的主干道經(jīng)十路北側(cè)，周邊有奧體中心、省博物館，以及各種商場、產(chǎn)業(yè)園和小區(qū)，可以說這是一個(gè)位于城市繁華地段的小山峰。身處在菠蘿山中間，可以看到周邊的高樓大廈，但這里大片綠油油的草地，仿佛無形中隔絕了外界的喧囂與吵鬧，有一種入則避世的感覺，充滿浪漫，而又使人心曠神怡。

滿城山水也沉淀了濟(jì)南的文化底蘊(yùn)。

“云霧潤蒸華不注，波濤聲震大明湖”將泉城的湖光山色勾勒而出；“海右此亭古，濟(jì)南名士多”則寫出人才輩出的城市榮光；鵲華秋色圖將當(dāng)年濟(jì)南的恬靜秋色永久定格……文人的往來，詩畫的筆墨都讓一座城市的文化氣息愈發(fā)濃厚起來。

以自然風(fēng)光和人文情懷打底，這座城市怎會(huì)缺少生活的樂趣。

比如，為了讓游客近距離體驗(yàn)到濟(jì)南“詩城詞都”的魅力，感受一把對詩的樂趣。五一期間，濟(jì)南在11個(gè)景區(qū)，布置了“詩城詞都”對詩擂臺(tái)賽的舞臺(tái)。歡快的氛圍、踴躍報(bào)名的游客，每場擂臺(tái)賽總能引起圍觀。

再如，濟(jì)南成豐面粉廠舊址歷經(jīng)百年歲月，如今搖身一變成為1922電競新媒體產(chǎn)業(yè)園，實(shí)現(xiàn)了數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)、潮流文化與歷史文化的融合與碰撞。藝術(shù)空間、咖啡館、電競館等現(xiàn)代元素的增加賦予老廠房以新活力。一開園就成為不少年輕人的“打卡地”。

由此不難看出，濟(jì)南這座古老城市很懂年輕人的“心”。

濟(jì)南的這份“松弛”正讓人們可以在忙碌工作的閑暇好好享受生活的美好。

老城區(qū)的煙火氣，是慢；日新月異的成長速度，是快。快慢之間，感受濟(jì)南不一樣的獨(dú)特城市氣質(zhì)。

宜快宜慢、張弛有度，人如此，城亦如此。在濟(jì)南，不必焦慮，自有充實(shí)與希望。

In the unceasing pursuit of urban progress and transformation， Jinan preserves a tranquil and contented pace of life， brimming with ease and grace. Beneath this serene facade of slow living， there beats a heart that is ever-advancing and resolute in its forward march.

Jinan boasts a rhythm that is just perfectly attuned.

The city’s metamorphosis is striking， evoking a palpable sense of awe and marvel.

Jinan’s Central Business District （CBD） is a constellation of imposing edifices that exude majesty and confidence. The city’s evolution is profoundly inspiring， transitioning from industrial zones and residential quarters to a skyline defined by soaring skyscrapers. Strolling through the CBD， one can feel the vibrant resonance of a rich cultural heritage merging with the pulsating vitality of a burgeoning commercial hub. Jinan has discovered its stride， poised to interact with the world from the vantage point of its very own CBD.

Beside the Yellow River， the Jinan Start-up Area of Growth and Drivers Transformation is rapidly emerging as a powerhouse. Over the three years since its approval， riding the favorable winds of major national strategic opportunities， the start-up area has been accelerating the transformation between old and new kinetic energies. Project after project is taking root and being constructed， marking the “City of the Future” with a transformation from nothing to something， continually turning the vision into reality. A “dazzling pearl” is rising on the banks of the Yellow River.

The “City of Tomorrow” is undergoing a transformative shift from concept to reality， gradually materializing into a tangible vision. This luminous jewel is ascending on the banks of the Yellow River， symbolizing the dawn of a new era.

“Innovation stands as the paramount force that propels progress.

The robust development of Jinan is intrinsically linked to its innovative spirit. In 2023， the city was home to nearly 7，000 high-tech enterprises， with over 8，000 national science and technology-driven SMEs registered. Jinan’s ascent in the global scientific research city rankings， as published by the esteemed British journal ‘Nature’， saw it claim the 32nd spot， a rise of four positions from the previous year.

Furthermore， Jinan’s comprehensive index of scientific and technological innovation has consistently led the province for five consecutive years. The city has excelled in 12 pivotal metrics， including the transaction volume of technology contracts， expenditure on fundamental research， and the establishment of national and provincial key laboratories， as well as provincial technological innovation centers， all of which have secured the top rank within the province.

Talent is the foremost resource.

The influx of talent from all directions is a true reflection of Jinan today. Since 2010， the city’s permanent population has swelled by 1.3 million， with over 630，000 young professionals possessing at least a bachelor’s degree choosing to make Jinan their home for work， pushing the city’s total talent pool to surpass 2.81 million.

With vigor and determination， Jinan is a city in motion， forging ahead with a steadfast gait and an ever-increasing pace. It has transformed into a haven for the ambitious， where researchers have access to high-caliber platforms， skilled artisans find a vast marketplace to showcase their crafts， and enterprising youths are provided with fertile ground to cultivate their dreams.

Such is Jinan—a city pulsating with rapid rhythms， expansive spaces， and abundant opportunities， making it an ideal place for those who aspire to strive and thrive.

Amidst the ceaseless surge of urban progress， Jinan offers a comforting ‘slow life’ pace. This tranquil rhythm is not confined to the historic districts； even in the flourishing eastern new city， the pace of work and life is equally blissful.

Recently， a vlog by a netizen who chose to stay in Jinan after graduation resonated with many on Xiaohongshu. She shared her experience of joining a pharmaceutical company， living in company-provided dormitories， and utilizing her talent card for public transportation. Her daily routine involves dining in the company cafeteria， and she indulges in the finer things on weekends： dining out， watching movies， and shopping. During holidays， she explores neighboring cities. Supported by the government’s talent subsidies， her monthly income is around 9，000 yuan， and she has managed to save tens of thousands of yuan within six months of work. She aspires to purchase a home in Jinan， with the aid of a 100，000 yuan subsidy for postgraduates. She finds a harmonious balance between spending and saving， and this rhythm of ‘life with purpose， living with hope’ makes her feel profound meaning.

In March of this year， the Southern Weekend City （Regional） Research Center unveiled the Citizen Attraction Index for 57 cities， a study that gauges the ‘gravitational pull’ of a city and its ‘a(chǎn)ffinity for retention.’ Jinan emerged as the top contender， while Beijing， Shanghai， Guangzhou， and Shenzhen were ranked 56th， 55th， 28th， and 20th respectively.

The profound cultural heritage of Jinan forms the bedrock of the city’s tranquil ‘slow life’ ethos.

The Boluo Mountain， a burgeoning local sensation， sits gracefully on the northern flank of Jinan’s bustling Jingshi Road. It is a place brimming with romance and a sense of expansive serenity that invigorates the spirit.

The mountains and waters throughout the city has deeply enriched Jinan’s cultural heritage.

For instance， Jinan staged a ‘Poetry and Verse Dueling Platform’ in 11 scenic spots. The festive ambiance and the eager participation of tourists have consistently drawn throngs of onlookers to each contest.

Furthermore， the historic site of the Jinan Chengfeng Flour Mill has been reborn as the 1922 Esports New Media Industrial Park. This transformation exemplifies the harmonious fusion and dynamic interplay between the digital economy， contemporary trends， and historical legacy. It is evident that Jinan， this ancient city， has a profound understanding of the aspirations and spirit of the younger generation.

Jinan’s embrace of leisure makes its citizens take a reast， allowing them to savor the sweetness of life amidst the hustle of daily toil. A city that thrives in both haste and repose， Jinan embodies a balance that is mirrored in its people. Here， there is no room for anxiety； instead， one finds fulfillment and the promise of hope.
